Interventional Pain Services

Helping you heal without surgery

When patients come to Mayfield with back pain or other symptoms, our providers and physicians take every step to help you heal without surgery or relieve your pain before surgery. Nearly 80% of spine cases at Mayfield are resolved without surgery.

Our experts take a conservative approach that expands your options and restores your quality of life. Physicians, nurse practitioners, physical therapists and other providers can diagnose the source of your pain and recommend the best non-surgical approach.

Physical therapy and other non-invasive treatment can help build strength and relieve pain. Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation (PM&R) physicians can administer tests such as an electromyography (EMG), measuring the electrical activity of the muscles and nerves as they send signals to other parts of the body. Interventional pain physicians treat patients with epidural steroid injections, nerve blocks, ablations, spinal cord stimulation and other techniques.

If these options don't resolve your symptoms and relieve your pain, you can move to the next step in our integrated spine care pathway with a referral to one of our surgeons for additional treatment options.

Our team of experts administers pain treatments at the Mayfield Spine Surgery Center and in pain procedures suites at our offices in West Chester, Springboro and Crestview Hills, Ky. We also provide injections at several area hospitals.
